Software Development Manager, Amazon 1P Credito
Amazon•Published 1 days ago•First seen 1 days ago
Are you excited about building the future of digital lending at massive scale? Do you want to own a critical product end-to-end (from architecture to delivery) while leading a high-performing engineering team in one of the world's fastest-growing fintech markets?
The Credit & Lending team at Amazon Pay is building Amazon's next-generation lending platform to enable seamless credit experiences for millions of customers across Latin America. We are looking for a Software Development Manager to be our Tech Site Leader in Brazil, owning a critical product pillar of the lending platform and leading a team of 7–8 software engineers to design, build, and operate highly scalable lending systems.
This is a high-visibility, high-ownership role at the intersection of fintech innovation, large-scale distributed systems, regulatory compliance, and customer obsession. You will own both the "what" and the "how", driving product and technical vision while building a world-class engineering team from Brazil.
This role requires a builder who thrives in ambiguity, can go deep on system design and code quality, and is equally comfortable making product trade-offs, mentoring engineers, and influencing cross-functional stakeholders in a fast-moving environment.
A day in the life
Own a critical product pillar of the 1P Lending platform in Brazil—define the product vision, technical strategy, and execution roadmap.
Lead and grow a team of 7–8 SDEs, setting a high bar for engineering excellence, code quality, operational rigor, and customer obsession.
Act as the Tech Site Leader in Brazil—be the engineering voice on the ground, driving local execution while staying tightly connected to the broader LATAM and global platform teams.
Design and build highly scalable, resilient, and secure distributed systems for real-time underwriting, loan servicing, repayments, accounting, and compliance.
Drive technical decisions on architecture, API design, data modeling, and system integration with internal services and external financial partners.
Navigate regulatory and compliance complexity—partner with legal, finance, tax, and risk teams to build technology that meets Brazilian financial regulations (Central Bank, PIX, Open Finance).
Establish operational excellence—own system availability, latency, monitoring, alarming, on-call processes, and incident management for your product area.
Influence the broader platform by contributing reusable components, shared libraries, and cross-market architectural patterns.
Recruit and develop top engineering talent in Brazil, building a team culture of ownership, innovation, and continuous improvement.
Communicate effectively with senior leadership—translate complex technical challenges into clear narratives, trade-offs, and data-driven recommendations.
